Everybody Lies.

I choose to believe that the events happened over a longer period to deal with the detox. As for him asking Cuddy, I also choose to believe that he did so because he didn't want Wilson to see him at his lowest, that he was afraid that he could con Wilson or pull something over on him because of their relationship and that he didn't ask Wilson because he feels guilty (even though he shouldn't) over Amber.

House hates appearing weak and although he reached out for Wilson, he was reluctant to show his weakest point to Wilson. Given some of Wilson's actions in the past, I don't blame him.

I like the fact that he called for Wilson. That broke my heart, he sounded so scared and lost. I love that Wilson was there for him.

I like that he reached out to Cuddy too. I thought it was a perfect balance. As for the sex- I remember during the Tritter arc when he cut himself and Cameron showed up and he made a comment to her about endorphins and alluded to having sex. So maybe that is what it was and a thank you to Cuddy for helping him.

I am not as unhappy about it all as I thought I was going to be. I even enjoyed the last bit because honestly, Hugh kissing a mule would be sexy to me. LOL :)
